SCREENING
The Bodyguard
Ongoing
Dir. Sammo Hung. 2016, 99 mins. Digital projection. With Sammo Hung, Jacqueline Chan, Qinqin Li. Retired Special Agent Ding (Sammo Hung), who lives in a quiet village on the Russia / China border, befriends a young girl whose father, in debt with the mob, disappears, leaving her in Ding’s care. Soon Ding must recall his superior strategic and tactical skills to save both their lives. This moving foray into the world of gang violence and revenge is fueled not by action and spectacle but rather the psychological struggle of a once-strong fighter grappling with oncoming dementia.
